I had a long day. I got the makings together to make giant enchiladas first thing this morning, took Stretch to the vet, cleaned the house, went out to the river with friends to photograph the fall colors, and then we had a great dinner. Guildenstern wanted us to worship him during dinner. Three of us were giving him attention, but the one person not interested in worshiping him was the one he pestered the most.

While we were standing along the river watching the mountains turn pink, the cranes started flying in for the night as the sun was setting, making nice silhouettes against the wispy clouds in the western skies.
